%X Most of the construction materials research now concerns on investigation of construction materials that is locally produced at a rate and cost compatible with the pace of construction. The present paper is concerned with investigation of fresh and hardened properties of self-compacting concrete (SCC) produced from local available materials in JORDAN. The produced SCC contains the local stone cut waste powder which is called Al-KHAMKHA in JORDAN with different replacement of (0%, 10%, and 25%) of fine silica aggregate</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">;</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">&nbsp;the study also investigate</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">s</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">the effects of SP33 super</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">&nbsp;</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">plasticizer which is used by different doses (1%, 1.5% and 2%) for cement. The slump flow and the compressive strength of SCC were studied and the experimental results indicate the possibility of using Al-KHAMKHA in the production of SCC as the results showed that the compressive strength of the SCC with 10 % replacement by al-khamkha together with 1% SP33</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">&nbsp;</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">super plasticizer was higher compared to pure SCC without al-khamkha</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">;</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">&nbsp;the results also showed that as al-khamkha content increased the slump flow decrease</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">d</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">.
